Interleukin-7 in rheumatoid arthritis.
Recent data from several groups demonstrate high levels of IL-7 in the joints of RA patients, but much lower levels in OA. In contrast, circulating levels of IL-7 in RA remain a point of debate. IL-7 has many roles in T cell, dendritic cell and bone biology in humans. Reduced levels of circulating IL-7 probably underlie a number of the dysfunctions associated with circulating T cells in RA and ...
متن کاملInterleukin-7 deficiency in rheumatoid arthritis
Interleukin-7 (IL-7) is a stromal factor that is crucial for the development of T lymphocytes in humans and mice, and also B lymphocytes in mice. IL-7 can act as a T cell growth factor as well as a critical anti-apoptotic survival factor. The essential non-redundant role of this cytokine for T cell development in vivo is indicated by the phenotype of murine knockout models as well as by humans ...

Objective(s):Although recent investigations have shown chronic inflammation and inflammation-associated diseases might be ameliorated by exercise; little is known about the relation between exercise training with anti/pro-inflammatory cytokines. Materials and Methods: This cross sectional study was conducted to compare interleukin-4 (IL-4), IL-6, IL-10, IL-12, IL-13, interferon gamma (IFN-γ) le...

متن کاملInterleukin-7 deficiency in rheumatoid arthritis: consequences for therapy-induced lymphopenia
We previously demonstrated prolonged, profound CD4+ T-lymphopenia in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients following lymphocyte-depleting therapy. Poor reconstitution could result either from reduced de novo T-cell production through the thymus or from poor peripheral expansion of residual T-cells. Interleukin-7 (IL-7) is known to stimulate the thymus to produce new T-cells and to allow circulatin...
